Description

Duo-Derm extra thin can be used as a primary hydrocolloid dressing for dry to lightly exuding wounds and can be used to manage stage 1 and stage 2 pressure ulcers. It was specially designed to reduce the risk of further skin breakdown due to friction. A thin polyurethane film provides a bacterial and viral barrier when the dressing remains intact and without leekage. The film provides a waterproof barrier over the dressing. The dressing can be removed without damaging newly formed tissue. It is designed to reduce the risk of further skin breakdown due to friction by preventing contact with clothes/bed linen. It can be used on the body as a primary or secondary dressing. It can be used on skin tears and superficial wounds, dry to lightly exuding wounds, newly-formed tissue or skin at risk of further breakdown.

Usage

Wash your hands, cleanse and rinse the wound and then dry the surrounding skin. Measure the wound to select the appropriate dressing size, allowing a 3cm overlap intact skin around the whole wound. Warm the dressing between your hands, remove the 'top' white release paper, being careful to minimize finger contact with the adhesive surface. Hold the adhesive side of the dressing over the wound, align the dressing with the centre of the wound then gently apply the center part of the dressing.

Remove the 'bottom' white release paper while rolling the dressing in place - but don't stretch it, repeat on the other side and remove the clear release paper. Gently mold the dressing into place for 30-60 seconds. Gently life one corner of the dressing, roll it away from the wound while holding the skin away. Gently lift the other corners and pull upwards until the dressing completely peels off.
